Walking With Butterflies

Monday, October 15, 2012

Leon Creek South Greenway, Pearsall Park Trailhead to the 1 mile marker

Today's photos:















When I first arrived at Pearsall Park about noon today, I had planned on walking the nature trail loop, but it was closed for construction. So, I walked about a mile of the Leon Creek  South Greenway trail.

Butterflies, butterflies, butterflies (no monarchs)... There were countless butterflies of many different kinds fluttering and swirling and perching everywhere. I was wearing a green plaid shirt and butterflies would occasionally perch on my shoulder.

Of course, there were many other things to see as well. Above is but a small sample of the many photos I took today.

An Overcast Friday Morning on the Leon Creek Greenway

Friday, May 4, 2012

Leon Creek Greenway, Ingram Transit Center Trailhead

Today's photos:


















The last time I walked this section of the Leon Creek Greenway was on Wednesday, November 9. That was a chilly, damp, overcast fall afternoon. This morning was a very humid, warm, overcast late Spring morning. The clouds began to burn off about the time I returned to the car, and the temperature soared making this the hottest day of the year so far, topping out at 96 degrees (F).

In addition to keeping the temperature lower in the morning, the overcast sky also provided a beautiful soft light illuminating the landscape. This is only a small portion of the photos I took this morning. There will be one more upcoming post with the remainder of the photos.
